**Today was the UK’s first [Gift Aid Awareness Day](https://fundraising.co.uk/2018/10/04/today-gift-aid-awareness-day/),
the idea of the Charity Finance Group.**

 

Zurich Insurance has been watching how charities have joined in the day to promote
Gift Aid, and here, with permission, is their collection of examples via a Twitter
moment which first appeared on [their Twitter account](https://twitter.com/ZurichVolSec).
